President Joe Biden is being briefed on the bloody attack against Kabul’s airport, the White House said Thursday, delaying a planned meeting with Israel’s visiting prime minister and cancelling another event.

“The president has been briefed and he is in the Situation Room,” an official told AFP on condition of anonymity. “The president met with his national security team this morning… and commanders on the ground. He will continue to be briefed on updates on the evolving situation throughout the day,” the White House said in a statement.

As a result of the crisis, a meeting with Prime Minister Naftali Bennett planned for 11:30 “will be delayed,” a White House official said. “There is not yet an updated time for the meeting,” a spokesman for Bennett said, adding the delay was due “to the events in Afghanistan.”
